Prolific North Top 50 PR Agencies 2016

We are delighted to announce this year’s ranking of the Top 50 PR agencies in the North of England.

Now into its fourth year, the Prolific North Top 50 agency rankings has quickly become a “go to” source for a definitive breakdown of the biggest and fastest growing agencies in the region.

As with our rankings of the Top 50 Digital Agencies and Integrated Agencies, inclusion in the list is not optional. It works as a result of the fantastic cooperation of the agencies involved. We have built up a network including hundreds of agencies who have shared the key data that drives the rankings – i.e. balance sheet value, turnover, growth and headcount. Thank you to everyone that supplied this information so readily. All data supplied is checked against our online source including Fame BVD.

Some of the notable findings from this year’s research:

Citypress retain first place in the rankings – and Manchester is now home to all of the top 4 – including Tangerine (who retain 2nd place), Havas (who presented strong growth figures and have climbed from 11th) and Weber Shandwick

Other notable “climbers” in the Top 20 include Leeds agencies Lucre and MCG, and Carousel PR, Mason Williams and Democracy of Manchester

Outside the Top 20 but rising up the rankings include Guisborough’s DTW, PR Agency One and Hattrick PR

Plus, several new entrants to this years’ rankings from across the region – including two from Newcastle-upon-Tyne. Our congratulations to all.
